Psalm III: The 3-in-1 Elixir That Replaces Everything
Part I: The Beginning of the End of Excess
You have heard this story before.
“First, cleanse with this foaming wash. Then tone. Then apply essence. Then serum. Then moisturizer. Then oil. Then SPF. And don’t forget your exfoliating mask, your retinol, your corrective cream…”
Step after step. Bottle after bottle. Promise after promise.
The shelves overflow. The bathroom counters buckle under the weight of “must-have” jars. The advertisements scream louder with every launch. And still—the skin rebels. Irritation, redness, dryness, breakouts. A cycle of temporary relief and long-term imbalance.
This is not health. This is noise disguised as care.
It is the industry’s greatest sleight of hand: convincing you that more is better, when in truth, more is often the very problem.
TSORI was born in defiance of that noise. Not by chasing the next trend, but by listening to silence.
The silence of a mother watching her daughter’s skin weep under chemical “solutions.”
The silence of formulas stripped down to their essence.
The silence of plants that speak in resins, oils, and whole ecosystems rather than synthetics.
From that silence came subtraction. And from subtraction came clarity.
Psalm III is the distillation of that clarity—the elixir that emerged after years of paring back. One mother, one daughter’s inflamed skin, and one ancient resin: Balm of Gilead.
What began as a single salve became a philosophy: skin doesn’t need more, it needs less.
And less, when it is pure, whole, and uncompromised—has never looked so luminous.
Part II: Why 3-in-1?
Psalm III refuses to be categorized. It is not a serum. It is not a moisturizer. It is not a cleanser.
It is all of them—woven into one.
Where the industry demands three bottles, three formulas, three purchases, Psalm III offers a singular, whole-plant answer.
- As a gentle face cleanser → it dissolves impurities, sunscreen, and makeup in silence, without the harsh lather or stripping surfactants that corrode the barrier.
- As a serum → it delivers concentrated plant intelligence: resins, oils, and antioxidants that brighten dullness, ease inflammation, and return skin to equilibrium.
- As a moisturizer → it seals hydration inside the skin’s walls with oils that mirror your own barrier lipids—never suffocating, always in harmony.
Three functions. One elixir. No compromise.
This is not multitasking as a marketing gimmick—it is the natural way. Plants were never meant to be split into isolates, just as your routine was never meant to be broken into ten steps. Wholeness is efficiency. Wholeness is enough.

Part III: Personal Experience
I did not create Psalm III because I wanted another product. The world already has too many.
I created it because my daughter’s skin had reached a breaking point.
Her face was inflamed—red, peeling, erupting with breakouts that no cream could soothe. She would cry when I tried to help, because every touch stung. The dermatologist offered stronger prescriptions. The beauty counter offered yet another “miracle” jar wrapped in promises.
Neither brought relief.
So I began subtracting. Layer by layer, I stripped away the noise. No foams, no acids, no jars of water padded with preservatives. Just silence. Just whole plants.
I returned to Balm of Gilead—the resin spoken of in ancient texts, a balm of healing and repair. I paired it with jojoba, that rare oil closest to the skin’s own sebum. I folded in frankincense, meadowfoam, and other botanicals that carry centuries of wisdom in their molecules.
The formula that emerged did not look like skincare as we’ve been taught to recognize it. It was not glossy or perfumed. It was earthy, resinous, alive.
The first night we tried it, her skin stopped stinging.
The first week, the angry flaking softened and lifted away.
And after a month—her skin was not perfect, not “glass,” not filtered smooth. It was something better: calm. Alive. Free.
That is what Psalm III is: freedom bottled.
Part IV: The Simplicity Equation
Let’s be honest. Most “clean beauty skincare” is not clean at all.
Behind the beige bottles and minimalist fonts, the formulas are still built on the same scaffolding:
- 70% water — the cheapest filler of all.
- Preservatives — required anytime water is present, no matter how “gentle” the marketing claims.
- Fragrance loopholes — a catch-all label that hides dozens of undisclosed allergens.
What you are really buying is not skin health, but dilution disguised as luxury.
Psalm III is different.
It is not padded with water. It does not rely on synthetics. It does not smuggle irritants under the word “fragrance.”
It is 0% water. 0% synthetics. 100% whole-plant actives.
Every drop contributes. Nothing is filler. This is what we mean by radical purity.
Chart 2: Formula Breakdown
Conventional “Clean” Serum
- 70% Water
- 15% Glycerin & solvents
- 10% Isolated actives
- 5% Preservatives & fragrance
Psalm III
- 100% organic professional skin care botanicals
- 0% filler
Where others dilute, we distill.
Where others mask, we reveal.
Where others settle for marketing, we return to plants in their wholeness.
That is the simplicity equation.
Part V: A Simple Skin Care Routine
What does life look like when your skin care is no longer an obstacle course of steps, bottles, and contradictions?
With Psalm III, your routine becomes so simple it feels almost radical.
Morning
- A gentle face cleanse (optional—only if the skin feels heavy or congested).
- While the skin is still damp, press 2–3 drops of Psalm III into the face, neck, and décolleté. Allow the oils to merge with your barrier like a second skin. Done.
Evening
- Massage Psalm III across dry skin to dissolve sunscreen, makeup, and the residue of the day. Add warm water and it emulsifies into a light rinse-off, leaving no film, only softness.
- Reapply 3–5 drops as a natural moisturizer for dry skin, sealing in hydration overnight.
That’s it.
No 10 steps. No confusion. No skin exhaustion.
Just the rhythm of skin returning to its own intelligence.
What you gain back is not only space on your counter—but space in your mind. Time. Stillness. The knowing that you are caring for your skin in the most aligned, uncluttered way possible.
This is not just a simple skin care routine. It is a simple skin.
Part VI: Who It’s For
Psalm III was not made for everyone. It was made for the ones who are ready to return to simplicity, to wholeness, to truth.
It is for:
- Sensitive skin → Oils mirror the skin’s natural barrier, calming irritation instead of provoking it. No foam, no burn—just alignment.
- Dry skin → Balm of Gilead and meadowfoam form a protective veil of lipids, delivering a natural remedy for dry skin on face without heaviness or residue.
- Oily skin → Jojoba—so like the skin’s own sebum—regulates oil production, making Psalm III both a gentle cleanser for oily skin and a quiet corrector of imbalance.
- Dehydrated skin → Unlike water-based creams that evaporate, whole-plant oils lock hydration inside the skin’s walls, restoring suppleness and glow.
- Aging skin → Frankincense grounds and renews while Spilanthes—often called “nature’s Botox”—softens the look of fine lines with an ease that feels earned, not forced.
It is skincare without categories, because skin itself shifts and changes daily. Psalm III is not built for one “type.” It is built for the whole human experience of skin.
Part VII: The Science of Subtraction
Modern dermatology has conditioned us to believe in more—more actives, more layers, more interventions stacked on top of one another. The implicit promise is that if you keep adding, you will finally arrive at balance.
But skin does not thrive on endless input. It thrives on coherence.
The barrier—the skin’s first intelligence—is easily disrupted by over-treatment. Once that wall is compromised, inflammation rises. And when inflammation becomes chronic, aging accelerates. Fine lines deepen. Sensitivity flares. Breakouts persist.
In other words: the “fixes” become the very triggers.
The science is simple yet overlooked:
- A healthy barrier = calm skin, steady hydration, slower aging.
- A disrupted barrier = irritation, dehydration, accelerated aging.
And the greatest disruptor? Excess.
Subtraction is not passive. It is the most precise correction. By removing what does not belong, the essentials can finally do their work.
This is the science of subtraction. This is the philosophy inside every drop of Psalm III.

Graph line: rises slightly with 1–2 products → peaks → then declines steeply as steps increase beyond 5–6.
Conclusion: More products ≠ more health.
Part VIII: Skin Minimalism as Sacred
At TSORI, we believe minimalist skin care is not neglect—it is the highest form of respect.
The world calls it laziness when you choose fewer products. We call it wisdom.
The industry calls it regression when you return to whole plants. We call it progress.
Marketing calls it weakness when you allow skin to rest. We call it strength.
Skin minimalism is not about stripping away for the sake of austerity—it is about clearing space so that what remains can finally matter. It is about trusting that the skin is not broken, but intelligent. That it doesn’t need to be overfed, only nourished with what aligns.
This is not simplification as compromise. This is simplification as reverence.
Psalm III embodies this alignment.
One bottle. Whole plants. Complete care. Nothing more—and nothing less.
Part IX: Organic Professional Skin Care
The phrase “professional organic skincare” has been diluted by the very industry it was meant to challenge. Many brands wear it like a badge while quietly watering down their formulas—padding with water, cutting costs with synthetics, and chasing mass-market margins.
We are not those brands.
Psalm III is professional in its performance, organic in its wholeness, and uncompromising in its purity. It is not engineered for every shelf in every store—it is crafted for the few who understand that true luxury is not about more.
True luxury is about less, done with precision.
Less filler, more substance.
Less compromise, more integrity.
Less noise, more truth.
For those who recognize that natural personal care products are sacred when left whole, Psalm III stands as proof that professional results do not require synthetic shortcuts.
This is organic professional skin care in its rarest form—potent, pure, and unapologetically uncompromised.

Part XII: The Experience
To use Psalm III is not merely functional—it is sensorial, almost liturgical.
The first touch is weightless, yet certain. Oils glide without resistance, meeting the skin as if they have always belonged there.
The scent rises quietly:
- The resinous balm of Balm of Gilead—ancient, grounding, sacred.
- The spice of frankincense—earth and incense, a reminder of stillness.
- The delicate softness of meadowfoam—a whisper of protection that lingers without heaviness.
This is not a cream you apply and forget. This is a pause. A breath. A moment of silence for your skin—where plants and body recognize one another as kin.
It is skincare, yes. But more than that—it is remembrance.
Part XIII: Beyond Skin—A Philosophy
Psalm III is more than a product. It is a protest.
A protest against the soft lies of greenwashing—where “clean” still means watered down, perfumed, and preserved.
A protest against the exhaustion of excess—ten steps, twelve bottles, and still a restless barrier.
A protest against the myth that you must overflow your bathroom shelves to be whole.
Psalm III is one bottle. Whole plants. Radical minimalism.
It does not ask for more. It asks for less—so that your skin can finally remember itself.
It is not absence. It is abundance, distilled.
One bottle. It is enough.
Part XIV: The Revolution of Fewer
We are taught to believe that more is modern, that complexity equals sophistication. But the truth is older, simpler, purer:
Natural personal care products are sacred when left whole. Plants do not need to be dismantled, fractioned, or reassembled in a lab to be worthy. Their power is in their wholeness.
Minimalist skin care is the highest form of respect. To choose fewer steps is not to neglect your skin—it is to honor its intelligence.
Organic professional skin care is not luxury marketing—it is integrity. It does not dilute, disguise, or greenwash. It is unadorned truth, delivered through plants in their fullness.
This is the quiet rebellion.
And Psalm III is its first flame—a spark that refuses to be buried under noise, a reminder that fewer is not less. Fewer is freedom.
Part XV: Final Takeaways
Psalm III is not another product to add to the pile. It is the product that makes the pile unnecessary.
- ✔ A true 3-in-1 → Cleanser, serum, and moisturizer in a single elixir.
- ✔ Whole-plant, organic, uncompromising → Nothing watered down, nothing synthetic, nothing hidden.
- ✔ For every skin state → Sensitive, dry, oily, or dehydrated—Psalm III adapts because it aligns with skin itself.
- ✔ Replaces entire shelves → No more “clean beauty” clutter disguised as care. One bottle is enough.

This is where the noise ends, and the clarity begins.
This is not a routine. It is a remembrance.
